Designed for the Divine: National Lingerie Day, Properly Observed
13 female-founded labels creating lingerie for the divine feminine
By: The Lace Ledger Staff
The divine feminine appears the moment instinct is no longer edited. She is intuitive, complicated, occasionally feral and entirely uninterested in being polite for the sake of someone else’s comfort. Lingerie designed for her does not attempt to smooth the edges, it celebrates the body exactly as it exists. Every curve. Every dimple. Even the sharp edge of your attitude.
In honour of National Lingerie Day, we gathered 13 labels founded by women who understand this philosophy intimately. These designers create pieces that treat lingerie as expression.
If your lingerie drawer has been feeling uninspired, the below designers have suggestions. Consider this your lingerie drawer upgrade.
Gothic Sleepwear Guide: Decadent Pajamas for the Holidays
Find your darkly festive Christmas morning ensemble that honours your aesthetic and the spirit of the season
The slow, sacred nature of the holidays ask us to show up in softness, especially in the mornings. Often mainstream sleepwear during this time of year can collapse into the trap of fast fashion: novelty flannel with deafening prints that ends up being tossed or donated after only a handful of uses.
While the thrill of a matching photo moment can be fun, the dark feminine tend to crave something more intentionally curated.
This edit is a way to honour the season without sacrificing your identity. It offers an invitation to choose rest with a point of view. It gives you permission to wake up on Christmas morning in a silhouette that still feel both authentic to your personal style and appropriate for your celebration, whatever it may be.
